Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 24-cup mini muffin tin or line it with mini muffin liners.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs and granulated sugar until well combined and frothy.
Add the eggnog, vanilla extract, ground nutmeg, and ground cinnamon. Whisk until smooth.
In a separate bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, stirring just until combined.
Melt the unsalted butter, let it cool slightly, and then fold it gently into the batter. Do not overmix.
Using a small spoon or a piping bag, evenly distribute the batter into the prepared mini muffin cups, filling each about three-quarters full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow the bites to cool in the tin for about 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Dust the cooled eggnog bites lightly with powdered sugar before serving for a festive touch.
